Very Good
Great location, about a 20 min drive from all locations we went to (3Arena, Temple Bar) and only half hour from the airport. The staff allowed us to check in early with no extra cost and the facilities were very nice.
The bedroom got very hot at night, but the price to add AC was quite a lot. We also put the “room freshen” hanger on the door but we were only given fresh towels, despite being down to just one loo roll. However, the reception staff were helpful and sent someone up to us with more loo roll within a couple minutes of asking.

The hotel was big, spacious and had a lot of facilites. The bedroom was spacious and clean. nice selection of tea and coffee.
wifi reception was very poor in the bedroom and kept on dropping. No cupboard space to unpack properly, open wardrobe was fine for shirts, but not other items I booked hotel since it had a carpark, but after booking in general email, it mentioned that it cannot guarantee a car space and there was an extra fee for parking. As it happened, I found a space easily but this made me worried before arriving of where to park.

Disappointing
Location was ok, a nice short walk into city centre. Good cafes nearby which was great as the food and coffee in the hotel are not good. If you stay here - don't tick the box for breakfast when booking - get your food off site.
There is no air con in the rooms, which in 2025 is poor. There was an old fan. So the room was really hot and humid and where I was, when you opened the window you had traffic outside. No coffee machine but a kettle, thats ok if the kettle wasn't glued to a draw which was then miles away from any plug point and the lead of the kettle didn't stretch. The boiler was being fixed so there was limited hot water. All in all for property in Dublin in 2025 I thought this hotel didn't meet seasoned travellers expectations. Very disappointed with the property and as for the breakfast........not good at all. Sorry but I will not be staying here again.

Poor
Location was great.
Room was basic. Pillows not comfortable. My allocated room located on the ground floor. Felt like the basement as room looked out on to a wall. Wooden floor in room so feels cold. Bad smell as we entered the reception. Very over priced for the quality of the room.
